Oil mitigation device for reducing oil levels in the Gulf of Mexico

摘要

A oil permeable-walled Gulf of Mexico oil spill and leak collection device is presented. The invention includes a chemical process-walled collection device. The device is 1×10⁻⁵ to 1×10⁵ feet long fortified pipe with 1×10⁻² cm to 1×10⁵ feet diameters including 100 ft diameter with walls externally permeable to oil. The thickness of the wall may vary from 1×10⁻⁵ cm to 1×10⁵ feet including 6 in thick. Gulf of Mexico oil coming in contact with the submerged device will be permeate through the oil permeable walls of the device and collected in the fortified pipe.
